The Salem Lutheran Pioneers are kicking off the new school year with a potluck picnic and informational meeting at the Schaefer property on Wednesday, Sept. 3rd from 6:00 to 7:30.  We will provide sloppy joes or hot dogs and beverages, families with last names A-M should bring salads and N-Z bring desserts.  Registration forms and schedules will be handed out then. 

On Wednesday, September 10th we will meet at Salem’s cemetery  where we will work on cleaning off some of the gravestones that have become overgrown.  Bring gloves, gardening tools, and wear clothes that can get dirty.  Any parents who want to stay and help are welcome.

Pioneers is open to all boys and girls, 1st grade and older.  We do a variety of activities that are fun, educational and/or service oriented, all in a Christian atmosphere.  If you can't make the first meeting and would like the registration materials or just have questions about the program, please contact Mark Enter, Debbie Sinclair or any of the Pioneer leaders. 

Also, if anyone has any skills, hobbies or interests that they would like to share with the Pioneers, either the boys, girls or both, feel free to contact us.  We can always use volunteers to help for a variety of things, from giving a presentation at one of our meetings to helping with our special activities to just being at our regular meetings to help out.  Everyone is welcome-you don't have to have kids in the program to volunteer.
